FRONT HEAD
1. Side Rod: Front head, cylinder, back head of breaker body are secured with
four side rods.
2. Back head: Gas charging valve are built in and charged with N2 gas to improve
the hammering power.
3. Operating Valve: Control valve is built in the cylinder and controls the piston’s
hammering action.
4. Cylinder: Cylinder is the heart of breaker body.
5. Piston: Kinetic energy of the piston is converted into hammering energy when
the piston hits the tool and consequently breaks rocks
6. Front Head: The front head supports the entire breaker with the thrust ring and
built in upper bushing against the transmitted shock from the tool.
7. Tool: Cone, chisel, blunt, moil can be used in accordance with application.

2.7 STORAGE
Long term storage
Observe the following points when the hammer is stored in the way the vital parts of
the attachment are protected from rust and the machine is ready to be used whenever
necessary.
• The storage area must be dry.
• The tool must be removed from the hammer.
• The lower end of the piston, tool and tool bushing must be well protected with grease
in all hydraulic hammers.
• Connections must be sealed with clean plugs to prevent oil leakage and dirt from
getting into couplings.
• The product must be stored in the vertical position.
• Make sure the product cannot fall.
Installation
• Install hammer in the same manner as mounting a bucket. Install bucket pins.
• Connect hoses. Hammer inlet port is marked on the back head with “IN” and outlet
port with “OUT”.
• Open hammer inlet and outlet lines.

3. LUBRICATION
Technical data
• NLGI grade 2
• Synthetic oil base with aluminium complex soap
• Approximately 15% graphite copper solids to reduce metal to metal contact damage
• Dropping point 260°C (500°F)
• Viscosity 15cSt
• Temperature range -30° ~ 230° (-20° ~ 450°F)
GREASING POINT
The greasing point on the hammer has
been marked with the above sticker.
Motor oils
5. Oil Filter
When working with hydraulic breaker, the carrier oil filter must fulfil the
following specifications:
a. The oil filter must be rated at 25 microns maximum.
b. The oil filter must be a standard return line filter rated to maximum working
pressure.
c. The oil filter must have a volume flow capacity of at least twice the breaker’s
maximum flow.
d. The cooler must withstand a dynamic pressure of 290psi (20bar).
e. If the carrier’s oil cooler is too small; either the original cooler must be
replaced with a larger one or an auxiliary cooler must be installed.
6. The auxiliary hydraulic cooler can be installed:
a. In front of the radiator, in which case an additional fan is not required, i.e.
maximum rise of the cooling air is 5°C (40°F).
b. Any other suitable place, using a fan either hydraulically or electrically
driven.
7. Damage caused by hydraulic oil contamination in the carrier and breaker
circuits:
a. The working life of the pumps is significantly shortened.
• Premature wear of parts
• Cavitation Recommended Oil, Temperature, Viscosity
b. Values do not function properly.
• Spools bind
• Blocking of small holes
c. Wear of cylinders and gaskets.
d. Reduced breaker efficiency.
• Premature wear of moving parts and seals
• Danger of piston seizing up
• Oil overheats
e. Shorten working life and reduced efficiency of hydraulic oil.
• Oil overheats
• Oil quality deterioration
• Electrochemical changes in hydraulic oil.
4. MAINTENANCE
3. Weekly Inspection
• Check that the side rods are tight and retighten as needed.
• Check that the housing joint bolts and the top cover bolts are tight and
retighten as needed.
• Check that the bushing pins, plugs and snap rings are in place and not
damaged. Replace as needed.
• Check the housing and the top bracket for cracks.
• Check the gas pressure in the back head. Recharge as needed.
4. Monthly Inspection
• Check the tool, the tool pins and the tool bushings for wear. Replace them
when wear exceeds the wear limit.
• Check the damping elements and wear plates for wear. Replace them when
wear exceeds the wear limit.
• Check the main carrier’s hydraulic oil filter. Replace as needed.
5. Every 6 months inspection
• Visual check that every part of the power cell is in good condition.
• Check every bolt and nut for the correct torque.
• Check the gas pressure in the accumulator. Recharge as needed.
• Check that every seal and accumulator membrane. Replace them as needed
1. After installing pressure gauge on charging block, turn handle of charging block
anti-clockwise.
2. Connect gas hose to N2 gas cylinder.
3. Install charging block to charging valve on back head after removing plug from
breaker. (Ensure that O-ring is installed on charging block.)
4. Connect the other end of gas hose to charging block.
5. Turn the handle of N2 gas cylinder anti-clockwise to open and slowly turn handle
of the charging block clockwise to set charging pressure.
6. Turn handle of charging block anti-clockwise, and then turn handle of N2 gas
cylinder clockwise to close.
7. Close cap of charging block after gas hose is relieved from three-way valve.
8. Recheck charging pressure into back head as turning handling of charging block
clockwise.

Release completely Backhead gas pressure before loosening side rods. Otherwise during
removing of the side rods, a serious accident could be occurred.
• Discharge N2 gas of back head completely before loosening side rods.
• Remove all side rods, and inspect for any cracks and damages on side rods.
• When installing side rods, tighten bolts one turn at a time in diagonal sequence, not
each nut completely all at once.
• Use torque wrench as specified range.

1. The adjustment of this valve adjuster is needed only when the oil flow and the
operating pressure are less than required specification valve. Otherwise, do
not adjust.
2. The valve adjuster is set at the position of 2.5 times counter clockwise turning
when first released to the customer from factory.
3. DO NOT turn the valve adjuster more than 4 times counter clockwise.
